MTL - Overturned Tower-v2 Chapter 31 birthdays and death days
"Yo, here comes our busy man!"
Russell even just entered the hall with Delphinium when he heard warm voices from around him.
It was a tone that sounded sweet and warm, reminiscent of ale. It’s just that compared to the more mature and charming soft voice of malt wine, this voice is sharper, crisper and immature... If you want to compare it, it’s like the business of the anchor who “sounds very girly and overly enthusiastic” The sound line is normal.
As far as the stranger's first reaction is concerned, it must be that the voice sounds a little bit awkward.
Russell knew, however, that her voice did. When I was in school, I was taught to "speak well" by the teacher and ridiculed by my classmates because of this... But from another perspective, many boys also think that her voice is very nice.
"Renee?"
Russell looked sideways in the direction of the voice, and saw a red-haired girl: "Why did you get down?"
She has variegated long hair mixed with white, pink, red, and a little black, and her ear feathers are also a gradient from white to red.
Although she was half a head taller than Russell, her overly thin figure and immature face made her look like a student who hadn't graduated yet.
"I'm right up there."
Renee said casually, swinging the yellow sunglasses smoothly with her fingers like turning a key ring. But she didn't look at Russell, but stared at Delphinium intently.
There was a kind of enthusiasm in her eyes, "Is this... your girlfriend, Russell? She's so beautiful!"
"I have a codename now, you can call me Qunqing."
Russell first corrected her, and then introduced her: "It's more like a fiancee than a girlfriend. Her name is Delphinium."
"Pigment? Then we are somewhat similar, and I am called "Cinnabar" now."
Renee looked at the delphinium, a little confused: "Why is the code name for a canine animal called "finch"?"
"Uneducated, isn't it?" Russell countered on behalf of the delphinium, "the delphinium is the name of a flower.
"It's you... why are you called Cinnabar? It can't be because you are a flamingo?"
"I think there's a good reason for that. Of course, the code name should be remembered as the top priority. If you have a nickname that others can't remember, it's the same as not remembering it."
Renee crossed her arms and said bluntly: "I was going to call it Flamingo. It's just that I took a look, and the number of people nicknamed Flamingo on Sogo Island is a little bit too much... That's why I took one." It's unpopular, but it's my code name that makes people think of it at first glance.
"It's you—it's easy to be confused with blue-haired people, right? Who is Ultramarine? I think your colleagues should have such doubts."
Chen Sha said with a smile.
She was still watching the delphinium, and even warmly wanted to shake her hand.
But just as she stretched out her hand, Russell waved it off unceremoniously: "Don't take advantage of my wife."
Chen Sha yelled in dissatisfaction, "Oh, it's okay..."
"...she should be... probably a girl?"
Delphinium asked uncertainly.
No matter from the voice or appearance, it seems to be a girl, and she is quite beautiful.
Compared with the overly plain, almost solid-colored clothing of the people around him, this Russell's high school classmate was wearing very conspicuous red long hair. From the deep purple near the ankles, it gradually changes to bright red, light red, pink, and white, and the top part blends with the fair to almost transparent skin.
Coupled with her white vest and shorts, plus the shawl with a circle of white fluff on the outside, and white pointed cowboy boots, this is an extremely bold, chaotic and at the same time a sense of coordination, looks It's really trendy.
Even if it is placed on Happy Island, it can still attract the attention of passers-by—not because of how beautiful it is, but because of the extreme soil.
But there is a saying that is good, the soil to the extreme is
tide. This weird but eye-catching outfit, coupled with her good looks and extremely confident attitude, will make passers-by think that it seems to be some kind of fashion.
It's just that her chest is too flat... and with the exception of Russell, who is almost exactly the same as Alice with a little dressing up, delphinium is not so sure of her own judgment now.
"Indeed," Russell pouted, "but she also likes girls. Don't be fooled by her." "...Oh~" Delphinium suddenly realized.
Although she seemed to be being watched, she was even more relieved.
——It's okay, Xian will be graceful.
It's better to say this...
Because the dialogue between Chensha and Russell is too casual and natural, full of the familiarity between friends. Although Russell brought her here, it was to let Delphinium see a more comprehensive self and witness the trajectory of her previous life. But when she really saw Russell's former acquaintances, she still felt a slight sense of loneliness.
It's like seeing the Samoyed humming non-stop when the owner squats down to pet the puppy on the side of the road.
She also wanted to intervene, but she really had nothing in common with the other party, and she was so polite that she was a little distant from him. With strangers, unless necessary, she will never take the initiative to strike up a conversation with the other party. Then once the topic did not fall on her, she could only watch silently from the sidelines.
"You boy... don't talk nonsense when you go up later, I brought my girlfriend here."
Cinnamon stretched out a slender finger and warned Russell.
"Girlfriend? Or that one?"
Russell raised his eyebrows, "That black-haired, petite kitten?"
"of course not."
Chen Sha crossed her arms and said, "You're talking about Li'er? Then your version is a little behind... I've changed three of them."
"You scum." Russell said with disgust.
"This time it's different, I swear!"
Chen Sha is full of confidence, "This time I will definitely be able to talk to the end... I feel that this time she is my destined partner!"
"You say that every time."
"So once is better than once. Every time I feel "it's her", and the next time I fall in love, I feel "better than the ex", so I can always have love. To be honest, I always feel that I In fact, I am quite lucky...As far as I know, after breaking up, it is more unlucky to find no better luck than the ex."
"People call it dedicated."
Russell complained, "Why can you always say so lightly. After you broke up with Jacqueline, do you know how long she came to me and cried?"
"How many times have I told you?" Chen Sha waved her hand impatiently, tilting her head and said, "You were deceived by her. She wanted to use me as a springboard to get close to you from the very beginning. Didn't I give you a stone hammer every time?" Is it? I found out that her motives were not pure, so I kicked her out immediately-isn't that brother enough?"
"It's not that easy to lie to me."
Russell imitated Cinnabar's appearance, crossing his arms and tilting his head, "At least from what I've seen, she must really like you."
"That's not okay. I hate people lying to me the most, especially this kind of emotional ones-his grandma's, straight women's clothes are left to get close to the target's female brother and have an acquaintance relationship. A relationship can be so entangled, Why doesn't she go to graduate school?"
Hearing this, the delphinium came alive.
She stretched out her hand and lightly tugged on Chen Sha's shawl, and said seriously: "Explain in detail."
"okay!"
Hearing the delphinium's words, Chen Sha suddenly became energetic.
When she was about to roll up her sleeves and start talking in detail, Russell interrupted: "No hurry, let's go up and talk about it.
"Stand at the door and blow the cold wind. If you're not cold, I'm still cold."
"Oh, too!"
Chen Sha nodded cheerfully, ran to the middle behind Russell and Delphinium, stretched out his hands to wrap their necks, pushed them to the elevator, and at the same time yelled at Russell: "I
Tell you what, Russell. The brothers are all here today... Four or five years have passed, and there has never been such a day!
"Big Ben was still talking just now. It's rare that everyone is here today, but you are the only one missing. Then as soon as he finished speaking, I received a message from you! You said it was a coincidence!"
"Why did you suddenly pick today's class reunion?"
Russell was a little curious, "Today isn't a special day...except that the day after tomorrow is my birthday~www.novelbuddy.com~ You are not celebrating my birthday, are you?"
Hearing this, Chen Sha stopped suddenly.
She looked at Russell with some puzzlement, and then she reacted: "Oh yes, you didn't know about this...No one told you about it last year."
This time last year was when Alice was most ill.
It's true that Russell didn't participate in any activities...he was so anxious that he was almost depressed.
"What's up?"
"Tomorrow last year... Or, tonight. Lykaon died. He must have been murdered."
Chen Sha whispered, "Today is his death day."
When Russell heard this, his eyes widened slightly.
